It changes structure when an electrical current is applied, which helps it switch focus between near or faraway objects, guided by tracking the wearer's eye movement.
"Thanks to our machine-learning approach, we not only validate the role of personality in explaining eye movement in everyday life but also reveal new eye movement characteristics as predictors of personality traits," neuropsychologist Tobias Loetscher from the University of South Australia said in a (http://www.unisa.edu.au/Media-Centre/Releases/2018/Artificial-intelligence-can-predict-your-personality-simply-by-tracking-your-eyes/#.W2BL39UzaUl) statement.

While saccades and fixational eye movements enable vision to be redirected to project and focus an object onto the fovea, another type of eye movement called a smooth pursuit allows for the object to be tracked and maintained on the fovea if and when it moves around within the environment.

To measure the eye movement, pairs of electrodes are placed both above and below of the eye or the left and right of the eye.
Importantly, while the methodological approaches of these studies have varied, they have reached similar conclusions: (1) task performance varies among individuals, (2) glaucomatous field loss does not always lead to poorer performance, and (3) visual field defects related to glaucoma can be compensated for in some individuals through effective head and eye movement strategies.
